Mondays I run all my errands and get groceries, etc. So I try to wake up early, or at least by 9am at the LATEST which that is the longest I have slept in, in a long time..otherwise I wake up mad because I've wasted most of my day...until this past Monday, with the time change, 9am, became 10am...so I was upset, and running behind the entire day.
Every night I go to bed at 10pm, like usual, and I can fall asleep quickly and get a good nights rest...until Monday, ever since then, I seem to toss and turn all night and wake up at odd hours and can't get back to sleep.
After Tom gets off work, we will go out and about some days, as we did Monday night and Tuesday night. Both nights we will be shopping or something and look outside and say oh we have PLENTY of time to get home and cook dinner, and eat at a reasonable hour. Then we look at the clock. It's 6:30 and we are at least 20 min. away from home.
So I wonder if we could just set our clocks back and be late everywhere? that would be too confusing. maybe we could set our clocks another hour ahead and just be early. Never bad to be early right? but we would spend a lot of time waiting. I think its best to just stick it out with this monster we call Daylight Saving Time, and hope we become better friends over the months. The thing is, just about the time we get this relationship back on track, it will be time to "Fall Back." It appears to be a never ending cycle. I just don't know why its causing such a rift in my life this time, but hasn't for previous years. Doesn't matter the reason, I want it to stop. I am ready to go back to waking up at a decent hour, being more on schedule, and being able to tell what time it is. And most importantly, getting good sleep! :-)

Well, they did change the week of time change again like they did last fall. I think it was a week earlier this year. Maybe that's throwing you off :)
We still haven't changed a clock in the kitchen and it's driving me crazy that I don't know which hour it's REALLY supposed to be when I look at it...
I concur .. it's obnoxious! And for some reason, my computer decided to jump backwords by like three hours. What is UP with that?
We were very confused about the actual time for quite a while around here =-) Hopefully you all get into the swing of things .. I think the whole thing is just stupid. Can't we boycot? *grump*
